BOARDMAN, Ohio -- An Ohio woman is facing charges of child endangerment for reportedly duct-taping her son to a chair.

Susan Malysa made her first appearance in court on Tuesday, WKBN reported.

Police said her mother called them after finding her grandson in the basement of her daughter's home. She told police she wanted to take the boy to lunch and became concerned when her daughter told her she wasn't allowed.

"The child had duct tape around each ankle, duct taping him to the chair," Sgt. Charles Hillman, Boardman Police, told WKBN. "He had his hands or wrists duct taped together. And he had a piece of duct tape across his mouth."
